  Chapter 1516 1516 [You have become a suspicious person again] Ask for a monthly ticket ()

  Inspector Yasa: "..." Fortunately, I heard that Jiang Xia and his group are only here for tourism, and they will not stay for a few days in total, and they should go back soon.

  I worked hard during this period, so I wish I could keep an eye on it. The big deal is to wait for them to leave, and then rest assured to take a good vacation, and make up for the missing vacation during this period

  ...Of course, it would be even better if he could solve the case before this little detective on the way to work and let him experience the power of the British police.

   "But, Inspector." Inspector Anna had heard Inspector Asa complain several times on the way here.

After hearing it again, she finally couldn't help but wondered and said, "What does Jiang Xia have to do with 'Arrogance'? I get along well with him, and he really helped us a lot. Otherwise, I wouldn't know that I would have to work overtime for that case." When will it be?"

  “…” There is indeed help, but “easy to get along with”?

  Inspector Yasa remembered the eccentric detective this afternoon, snorted angrily, and stopped talking to the subordinate with his elbow thrown out.

  …

  In short, with this competitive idea in mind, Inspector Yasa listened carefully to the testimonies of the witnesses.

  After hearing a few keywords, he couldn't help but have a few question marks in his head: "Wait, what do you mean the prisoner disappeared?"

  —The witnesses are not only Jiang Xia and others who rushed upstairs, but also those who stayed downstairs before.

  Jiang Xia also followed Inspector Yasa to listen to the testimony.

Hearing the police's question now, he explained like a very patient teacher: "This building is relatively old, and the area is not too big. There are only two exits at the front and back. The back door has not been used for a long time and has rusted. In other words, the only place where the whole building can be entered and exited is the gate we entered.

"When we rushed to the door of the building, gunshots rang out upstairs. At the same time, those who stayed outside saw a person walking away from the window on the seventh floor. Based on the situation at the time, the person was not dead. Mr. Nanjo, and it is likely to be the murderer himself. So I asked the people left behind to keep an eye on the surroundings of the building.

"But when we came up, we only found the body on the 7th floor, and there was no trace of the murderer. If he wanted to escape from the crime scene, he could only use the escape stairs or the elevator, and these two routes would end up at the gate on the 1st floor. The positions overlap, that is to say, if he left, people outside would definitely be able to see it, but they didn’t.”

After being translated by him, Inspector Yasa touched his chin and felt that he understood everything again: "Hmph, it does sound like he disappeared, but you have ignored the simplest situation. The murderer can't disappear! Since he didn't run out , then he must still be hiding in this building—search for me."

   With a big wave of his hand, he turned to the little policemen on the side: "Also, since the deceased was shot to death, the murderer probably had a gun. Be careful when searching."

  The police officers nodded, except for a few evidences still left at the collection site, the others left quickly.

  The room suddenly became empty.

  Inspector Yasa turned to Jiang Xia, frowned and said, "It's been a while since I received the call to the police. Are you sure you didn't let him go?"

  Jiang Xia hadn't spoken yet, those who were sent to watch the surroundings nodded vigorously: "There are so many of us staring, how could we run away."

  Inspector Yasa nodded, and couldn't help puffing out his chest: How could the murderer disappear without warning, he must still be hiding in the building.

  It seems that this time, I can finally show the majesty of the police—so what if the detective is good at solving crimes? This kind of large-scale search and arrest must be more efficient for the police.

   However, the detective next to him didn't seem to think so.

  —Soon, Inspector Yasa discovered that Jiang Xia and the first-grade pupil got together.

  Primary school student whispered: "I heard Huiyuan said that when the lights on the seventh floor were suddenly turned on, the murderer was leaning against the window, leaving behind a clear silhouette..."

  Jiang Xia seemed to understand what he was going to say, and then said: "But the light switch is at the door, far away from the window, and standing by the window should not be able to reach the light. So someone else turned on the light."

Conan nodded: "In the end, it's strange to turn on the light after killing someone. You should run away in the dark... Is the murderer looking for something important? And the roll of tape in front of the elevator —It can’t be put there just to trip people who run upstairs, that roll of tape didn’t even cross the doorway, it was just placed vertically on the ground, normal people wouldn’t be tripped by it no matter what.”

Beside, the reporter who was really tripped heard it sharply, and couldn't help but glanced over: "..." He was just carrying the camera and couldn't see his feet clearly, that's why he was tripped... Could it be that this elementary school student is in the connotation? Journalists are not normal people?

  Thinking of this, his fist hardened, and he suddenly wanted to hit that child on the head. But looking at Jiang Xia's harmony with that elementary school student, and remembering that Jiang Xia helped him catch the camera just now, the reporter finally endured it silently.

  The brief communication between the two true and false detectives ended quickly.

  Jiang Xia stood up, looked around the room, and his eyes quickly fell on the cabinet against which the corpse was leaning. There is a fax machine on the small cabinet, and there is still a stack of papers that have just been delivered in the machine. Judging from the time marked on the paper, it was almost exactly when Hayato Nanjo was killed.

  On the sofa between Jiang Xia and the cabinet, the two women sat side by side, both very haggard, but the short-hair manager still pulled himself together and comforted Mrs. Nanjo in a low voice.

Suddenly found that Jiang Xia was looking at the fax machine, and the agent explained: "That is the manuscript that will be published in the magazine next week. The magazine previously conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Nanjo. According to Mr. Nanjo's habit, before publishing The manuscript must be shown to him."

  Paused, she lowered her eyes sadly: "I didn't expect this to be his last interview, obviously he is still in his prime."

  Inspector Yasa listened to Jiang Xia's movement with his ears upright: Although he firmly believed that the murderer could not disappear out of thin air, but thinking about it carefully, there were indeed some abnormalities. He wanted to eavesdrop on the progress of the detective's investigation.

   While listening, the walkie-talkie on his waist suddenly rang. A dignified voice of the police came from inside:

"Inspector! When we surrounded and searched up and down to the third floor, we suddenly saw a suspicious figure in the corridor—that person wanted to avoid us and sneak downstairs, but something fell at the entrance of the corridor and made a commotion. Let us spot him just in time.

   "Now that person has hid in a room on the third floor. We don't know the terrain of the room. Considering that he may have a gun in his hand, we dare not go in rashly. We are now confronting each other."
